For those preg with #2 or more...

Did you start showing sooner? With my first I really didn't show until 20+ weeks and didn't really wear much maternity clothes. I am currently 11w and feel like my belly is definitely popping and I am getting a little self conscious - it looks like the stage where I look I'm just getting fat, not pregnant Chat Icon I am the same pre-preg weight but my body is totally changing.

Re: For those preg with #2 or more...

This is my 2nd child, 3rd pregnancy (last pregnancy ended in ectopic at 8 weeks). I definately showed much much sooner this time around than I did with my first. I think by 8 weeks this time I was already not fitting into my pants. By 16 weeks this time I was already so big that I was getting the "OMG are you sure it's not twins?" and "Wow, if you're THIS big already what's going to happen when you're in you're 3rd trimester??" comments Chat Icon

With my son, I also showed early, but not nearly as early as this time. I think I managed to hold off on maternity jeans until I was in my 2nd trimester with him. This time...no way in hell could I have waited that long Chat Icon

not really no, i wore maternity stuff early because its less pressure on my belly. Not because i was showing.

YES! I couldn't wait to take my pants off by 8 weeks and started wearing maternity pants around 9 weeks for pure comfort and to take pressure off my belly. I was showing by 11-12 weeks and popped around 17 weeks.

I was like 9 weeks when my belly rounded with Lila. I was at least 22-23 weeks with Hayley before popping.

Yes, completely. I showed earlier with my second, and even earlier still with my current (third) baby. My OB said this is normal.

YES! I am 17w with DC2 and I noticed about week 13 I was changing shape. Now this week I have a noticeable pop. I am plus size and look different than I did before I got pregnant. lol

I'm only 7 weeks and I already have a little belly. It doesn't help that I'm starting this pregnancy heavier than my previous ones. We haven't told family and friends yet, but my mom has recently rubbed my tummy a few times and said I've gained weight or is it a baby!! Lol. Moms always know. Chat Icon

For #2 I think I was about a month ahead of how I showed with #1.
